How to Increase Profits in 2017

Jack Mencini and Adam Sonnhalter of Maximum Value Partners and hosts of Dirty Secrets of Small Business tackle the important How Question for 2107 — How do you the small business owner make more money?

You can ask you CPA? How do I make more money. They might answer with: “Real simple… increase revenues or decrease expenses.”

But the CPA does not really fill in any details on how to do this. They are afraid to give any advice. Usually when you sign your tax return, it will say you are responsible not them, because even though they did the tax return… you are responsible for your business and what you report to the IRS.

The true answer to making more money in 2017 is to have a plan. Rather a Profit Plan… not a budget, a tired, dusty word. A budget focuses on the cost side. A Profit Plan focuses on sales, expenses and profits. As a small business owner you need to concentrate on how to get more money in your pocket.
